Sofia trusted Feng Jun very much and did not think he was exaggerating.

However, she didn't want to expose their current hiding place. It was not only close to home but also relatively secluded.

Now that Feng Jun was here, she was not worried about the other party, but what if Feng Jun left?

So, she took the iPad and drove twenty kilometers to a place with paid WIFI.

In the car, she proficiently logged into her social account, opened it, and exclaimed softly, "This is… a death threat?"

Feng Jun answered nonchalantly, "With me here, rest assured… should I ask him for the gold?"

Keane seemed to be online all the time. Only a minute after Sofia sent the message, he replied, "Cursed gold?"

Feng Jun didn't quite understand, so Sofia took the initiative to explain, "Gold is also called the Devil's Curse. He's identifying himself… With enough gold, he can tempt more people to believe in the devil and trade their souls."

Then she typed a message, "If gold can be used, we can make the transaction now."

There was a moment of silence on the other side before a line came back, "It's hard to measure the purity of the gold. It must be three and a half tonnes."

The two sides quickly finalized the details. Keane said it would take an hour to arrive, but he seemed very familiar with the area and set the transaction location at an abandoned factory one kilometer away.

If this place were in the city, maybe some black people would be hiding inside, but without water or electricity and outside the city, there was certainly no one there.

The two of them spent two minutes driving the car into the factory. As they got out, Feng Jun handed Sofia a protective talisman, "Put it in your pocket."

The factory had been abandoned for quite some time. The surface that had been paved was starting to crack, with tufts of weeds growing through. However, Feng Jun still picked a relatively flat spot and laid out three hundred and fifty bars of gold, forming a golden wall.

Sofia adjusted the car's headlights to directly illuminate the gold bars.

Five minutes later, Feng Jun had arranged the gold bars, and Sofia turned off the headlights, leaving only the hazard lights on.

Feng Jun walked to the front of the car. Sofia had already gotten out, holding an umbrella in her hand. Seeing him coming over, she handed over the umbrella and naturally leaned against him, wrapping her arms around his waist.

Feng Jun didn't feel she was deliberately trying to seduce him. It was, after all, such a rainy night in a desolate place; even if it were a burly man, they'd feel on edge.

However, the next moment, he gently removed her hand and spoke in a deep voice, using English, "Step away from me."

Upon hearing this, Sofia instantly got goosebumps all over—had someone already arrived?

Feng Jun, however, took out a cigarette and lit it, taking a few steps and leaning against the back of the car.

The rain wasn't heavy, not enough to wet the cigarette. A red tip flickered at the corner of his mouth, barely illuminating his dark face.

Sofia held the umbrella, forcibly calming herself, rubbing the goosebumps on her right arm with her left hand, then switched to her other hand and gradually calmed down—Keane was powerful, but there was someone even more powerful standing behind her.

About ten seconds later, a figure emerged from the distance, an emaciated old white man. He was dressed in a black tailcoat, wearing a black top hat, and holding a black umbrella.

He walked slowly as if leisurely attending a grand banquet, despite the rainy wilderness around him.

The old man's pronunciation was slightly unclear and low, but his speech wasn't fast. Feng Jun could barely understand, "I am curious, what made you change your mind?"

Sofia's teeth were still chattering slightly, and her voice trembled, "D-d-d-damned weather… The reason is simple, I've gathered the funds for the transaction."

"Is that so?" The old white man stopped about seven or eight meters away. He had approached from the side, roughly equidistant from both her and Feng Jun.

The old man grinned, revealing his white teeth, "My senses tell me that there are only two of you here. I'm curious, young lady, running around with so much money, who gave you the guts… this Black Ghost?"

"This is just a transaction, unrelated to guts," Sofia replied in a deep voice, "I brought the gold. What do you have for us?"

"Oh, cursed gold, I do like it," the old man laughed eerily, "So, should the headlights be turned on?"

"As you wish," Sofia reached through the car window and turned on the headlights.

The bright headlights pierced through the fine rain, shining directly on the golden wall, casting an eerie glow in the pitch-black night, making it impossible to look away.

The old man was also captivated by the glow, momentarily stunned, and then he turned, angrily shouting, "Put down your mobile phone, Black Ghost… there won't be a signal here."

Feng Jun shrugged, pocketed his mobile phone, and didn't speak—he had already done what needed to be done.

Sofia reached out again and turned off the headlights, "So, esteemed Mr. Keene, what have you prepared for us?"

"I want to take a look at those lovely curses first," the old white man walked quickly toward the golden wall, picked up two bars of gold and weighed them, "Haha, they're just so adorable."

Sofia saw the little black demon on his head and couldn't help but shiver again, "This damned weather."

The white old man took quite a while to stop his maniacal laughter, then carefully counted the number of gold bars and laughed loudly again.

After a long time, he turned around and walked towards Sofia, deliberately avoiding the range of the spotlight, "Little girl, I don't know whether to call you naive or foolish… I'm the infamous Devil Keene, and you're making a deal with me like this?"

"Business is business," Sofia struggled to make her voice sound normal, "Only children distinguish between good and bad."

"That's right," the white old man nodded with a smile, "So should I say that I'm an adult, and I want it all?"

"That joke isn't funny at all," Sofia finally regained her composure, "Honestly, I don't want to deal with you at all, so now… where is the item I want?"

The white old man continued to smile, "I'm curious… do you really have the courage to do business with a devil?"

"If there's no business, then leave," Sofia said in a deep voice, "Mr. Keene, please stop bothering me in the future."

"No no no, business still needs to be done," the white old man shook his head with a smile, hesitated for a moment, and then asked seriously, "I heard from my little darling that you can see it, is it true?"

Upon hearing this, Sofia's heart sank at once. The way Mai Nation people express themselves is far less profound than Huaxia, with some methods being a 100% declaration of war, leaving no other possibilities.

But by this time, she couldn't back down either, "So, you haven't prepared what I want?"

The white old man continued to smile, "It seems that after Keene hasn't appeared for many years, someone has forgotten how terrifying I am."

Just then, a bolt of thunder struck out of nowhere, hitting the ground just five or six meters in front of Keene.

The moment the thunder struck, the little demon lunged out, its target was Feng Jun.

Keene thought that Sofia, who ran away in fear the first half of the night dropping her iPad, dared to come back to trade the second half of the night because this black guy might have played a decisive role – of course, it could also be that the girl was foolish enough to believe the black ghost's boasts.

But Feng Jun had already prepared the Thunder Decree in his hand. Seeing the opponent make a move, he didn't even think and directly cast a Falling Thunder Technique.

The cultivation level of the little demon was similar to an initial stage spirit beast, equivalent to the Qi Refining Initial Stage — the mobile phone's judgment was also "Little Demon Initial Stage", Feng Jun had never dealt with a devil system before, didn't know what that meant, but fortunately, there was an annotation in parentheses afterward.

However, this little demon was really not sturdy. One Falling Thunder Technique directly pulverized it into ashes.

Keene was shocked, "Wrath of Thunder?"

He could never have imagined in his wildest dreams that this black ghost actually possessed thunder techniques — the thunder and light systems were the ones that restrained him the most.

In fact, Feng Jun's Falling Thunder Technique even enveloped Keene in it. Holding an umbrella in his hand was purely asking to be struck by lightning.

But by coincidence, the umbrella he was holding — was lightning-proof.

Ordinary umbrellas would attract lightning, but this one had been consecrated through blood sacrifice. When going out, he relied on this umbrella to withstand lightning.

Not only does it withstand lightning, but it can also resist light and purification techniques.

So even though he was affected by the Falling Thunder Technique, he felt no pressure at all.

But he was still very surprised, such an invincible existence as the little demon actually… was struck down by a single lightning bolt?

If Feng Jun knew what he was thinking, he would probably laugh out of anger, "I, at the Intermediate Level of Out of Dust, and a Falling Thunder Technique can't kill a demon creature of Qi Refining Initial Stage, I might as well buy a piece of tofu and drop dead."

But Keene just couldn't accept this fact, his ability to roam around unafraid of the church's bounty was 70% because he had a little demon from blood sacrifice and blood feeding.

The little demon was indeed summoned through blood sacrifice, in this case, Sofia didn't falsely accuse him, he had sacrificed over twenty families, but that's where the pitfall was, he originally only needed to sacrifice one family — a family with full faith.

However, each family claimed to have full faith, but each experienced unexpected events.

It wasn't that he wanted to kill so many people, it was them – they just weren't sincere enough.

Because the believers were not devout enough, so I accidentally killed a few more people, is that my fault?

Blood feeding is to summon the little demon and then feed it with one's own blood essence — feeding it with someone else's blood essence is also possible, but doing so might make it someone else's little demon.

The Falling Thunder Technique didn't harm him much, but the death of the little demon caused severe backlash, and he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

Though he seemed calm all the time, his nerves were always tense — if the little demon hadn't told him that Sofia could see it, he might have chosen not to meddle, just completed today's transaction.

But things had progressed to this point, it was too late to say anything else, while spitting blood, he removed the handle of the umbrella and pulled the trigger at Feng Jun — Demon Bullet!
